According to Lena Berglund, the sudden price changes will persist.
How big they will be depends on weather, wind and Russia's gas exports to Europe.
Supply and demand
Deliveries that from Wednesday will decrease more and more.
- In July we had high electricity prices in southern Sweden, today we are down to seven öre because it is windy in northern Europe.
The enormous fluctuations will in all probability continue, says Lena Berglund, who at the same time points out that the price is still determined by where in the country you live.
- Differences will remain.
It depends on supply and demand in the electricity areas.
We have more production in the north and higher demand in the south, she says.
Will the electricity price be higher or lower compared to last winter?
- It will look about the same, I would say, or maybe higher.
I don't think we will see lower electricity prices this winter than we saw last winter, says Lena Berglund.
Much more expensive this year
According to Lasse Ejeklint, climate coach at Vattenfall, there are many indications of expensive electricity this winter as well.
This is largely due to the dependence on Russian gas in Europe.
But things can still happen that change the forecast, he believes.
- If you compare quarter two with the same period last year, the price has been approximately three to four times higher on the continent.
In Sweden we have a price difference depending on transmission capacity, in the south you follow the prices on the continent more than you do in the north, says Lasse Ejeklint.
- There is a big risk that we will have higher electricity prices this winter and beyond.
It is the Russian gas that is the big question mark.
